Rubyish Dependency Injection

Today, I witnessed something beautiful.
Jim Weirich let me preview an article he wrote (and which he will shortly post on his own blog) about dependency injection in Ruby. He gives a sample implementation, which I found particularly elegant, and very “rubyish”.
Jim has consented to let me use his design as the basis for the “next generation” of Copland. I’m thinking I may want to just create a whole new project, since Copland’s approach to DI is significantly different than Jim’s, and the two are not exactly compatible.
Although…it should be possible to implement Copland on top of Jim’s design… something to think about, anyway.
